My daughter loves to play with tape. We have many decorative rolls of masking tape & washi tape and Mai loves to get her hands on them.

Unfortunately, she likes to tape it to our walls. We needed to find a fun project for her so that she could use that tape in a better place. Easter is on its way & we decided to make some cute little Easter baskets. Our tape would be perfect for creating the weaving pattern.

What you will need:

Brown paper lunch bag

Washi tape or decorative tape

Pipe cleaners

Directions:

Roll the top of a brown paper bag down.

Tear off a bunch of pieces of tape to make it easier to grab.

Take the pieces of tape & press them onto the bag in a diagonal criss-cross pattern.

Twist a few pipe cleaners together to form your handle.

Staple the pipe cleaners to the paper bag.

We stuffed our baskets with Easter grass & then stuffed a few Easter eggs with jelly beans to go into them.

My daughter was very proud of her Easter basket & was pretty excited about the jelly beans too.
